Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I could practically recite it at this point! Which is part of why I feel no need to see it.

In theory, it should only take me 3 hours to make the drive. I've made good time once or twice. But I gather they've started up even more crazy construction on the highway, and I could very well spend 3 hours just trying to get out of Chicago.

Also. Um. My registration expired in January, and I kind of haven't been to the DMV yet because I rarely need to drive anywhere.

As an adult, I suck out loud, man.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

shrift, I had to get my registration renewed a few weeks ago, when I realized I'd been driving around on tags that expired back in November. Oops!

Oh, crap.

I mean, not that I care for him as a candidate, but crap.

I'm haven't driven my car since my tags expired, and I think that's about the only thing I can say in my defense.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

During the Senate Judiciary Committee debate on granting authority to issue subpoenas in the Justice Department purge scandal, Arlen Specter groveled:

If we don't like what we get, we can always issue a subpoena and move with a subpoena if we don't like what we get. Why not take what we can get in the interest of...

At that point, Patrick Leahy interrupted him, visibly angry:

No, no, what we're told we can get is nothing, nothing, nothing. We're told we can have a closed door meeting, with no transcript, not under oath, limited number of people and the White House would determine what the agenda is. That to me is nothing.

And moments ago, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted for the authority to issue subpoenas. So let's start issuing them.

Oh, I was afraid of that. Good luck to them.

Our wings are not tired.

Not suspending the campaign. CNN spoke too soon.
